Diphenhydramine + DMT: Caution

Diphenhydramine+DMT

Caution

These combinations are not usually physically harmful, but may produce undesirable effects. Use caution.

Note: At 25-50mg, DPH may assist with side effects of the DMT such as nausea and anxiety. At higher dosages, the combination of a deliriant (DPH) and DMT is cautioned against. DMT is likely to increase the deliriant and negative effects of DPH, in addition to increasing the risk of severe injury and mental trauma.
